In a normal running system, 'SUCESSFULLY_QUEUED' is the normal return value
of ncr5380.c:ncr5380_scsi_cmd(). It more or less means that the command is
started and that the higher level driver will be told when it's done. The
higher level correctly free's the CPU (by calling tsleep() -
scsipi_base.c:scsipi_execute_xs()) and waits for a wakeup() call that is
located in scsipi_base.c:scsipi_done(). The latter function is called from
ncr5380.c:finish_req().
The million dollar question is: why doesn't the wakeup happen? The only
thing I can think of to debug this is adding printf's to scsipi_execute_xs()
and scsipi_done() (for the se-target that is ;-) - xs->sc_link->
scsipi_scsi.target).

The atari-driver was there before the mi driver. Stepping over on the mi
version has not reached the top of my todo-list yet. The same is true for
the zs-driver...
Good luck,
